He Tieniu grew up in Cuihufang since he was a child, but his family is not in Cuihufang, and the high housing prices in Cuihufang are not something that He Juncai, a small leader, can afford.

He Tieniu and his uncle He Juncai live in Panlongfang next to Cuihu Fang, which is next to Cuihu Fang, and the He family has a four-room old courtyard here, which is left by the ancestors of the He family to their children and grandchildren.

With He Juncai's salary and financial management ability, if it weren't for this old courtyard, their uncle and nephew would not have been able to live in the city with their meager salaries, and they would have moved to the hut area outside the city a long time ago.

This embarrassing living situation was not greatly improved until He Tieniu's second aunt got started.

He Tieniu's second aunt surnamed Zhou, also a poor family, his mother died early, his father had to become a Taoist priest, rented a stall in front of the rudder of the Tiandao Sect, and made a living by divination and writing on behalf of others, and reluctantly raised He Zhou's family.

He Zhou's life was hard, he often starved when he was a child, but he was born very beautiful, but unfortunately he had a smallpox when he was nine years old, and although he survived, he left a lot of pockmarks on his face, ruining his previous beautiful face.

He Zhou's life is hard, even after so many hardships, she has never given up on herself, and strives to cultivate herself into a thrifty, diligent, and nimble girl, and has also cultivated a good female celebrity, but unfortunately because of her appearance, she has never married until she was eighteen years old.

His father Zhou Daochang was very anxious, and finally fell in love with He Juncai, the leader of Cuihu Fang, and felt that although He Juncai was only a middle-aged person, and the family did not have any money, he was loyal, affectionate and righteous, and he was able to help his deceased eldest brother take care of his young son when he was young, and he had never married.

Zhou Daochang makes a living by divination, so he is naturally able to speak, he deliberately approached He Juncai, and finally married his baby daughter to He Juncai.

That year, He Juncai was thirty years old, He Zhou was nineteen years old, and He Tieniu was thirteen years old, and finally formed a complete family again.

Zhou Daochang died of illness not long after marrying his daughter, and many people said that Zhou Daochang calculated that his limit had come, so he was in such a hurry to marry his daughter.

Although He Zhou's face is pockmarked, he has a good figure and is good at housework, and he gave birth to a healthy and beautiful daughter to He Juncai after a year of marriage.

Since He Zhou's marriage to the He family, he has changed He Juncai's problem of spending money indiscriminately, plus he is also diligent, taking on some sewing and mending jobs at home, and doing some embroidery to sell when he is free, it only took more than a year for the He family to save a sum of money.

After the birth of his daughter, He Zhou's family took out the money he had saved to rebuild his four houses, and the neighbors saw He Juncai's newly built house and praised He Zhou's virtue.

Since then, He Juncai has never taken care of his family's affairs, and he received a salary every month and handed it directly to He Zhou's family, and received two pennies of pocket money, and he didn't have to worry about the rest.

The life of the He family is getting better and better, it used to be rare to eat meat twice a month, but now you can see meat almost every day, and the small life is very comfortable.

And He Tieniu also has great respect for this aunt who is only six years older than him.

He Tieniu, whose parents died when he was a child, was raised by He Juncai, He Juncai himself was rough and leafy, and he had never studied, raising He Tieniu was completely free-range, and the uncle and nephew had always been making do with life.

It wasn't until He Zhou's family entered the Zhou family that He Tieniu really felt his mother's love.

In addition to taking care of He Tieniu's food, clothing, housing and transportation, He Zhou also taught He Tieniu to read and write, teach him etiquette, and teach him to be a man.

At first, He Tieniu, who was used to herding, was very uncomfortable, and even a little rebellious, but when he found that he was literate and polite, there were more neighbors who loved him, and he had a lot more friends, so he was completely convinced of this aunt.

After He Tieniu told his second uncle and second aunt yesterday that he had apprenticed and was going to return to Xuanji Mountain with the martial idiot to learn the Tao, he was opposed by two people.

He Tieniu's two closest people objected at the same time, which made He Tieniu doubt whether the decision he made was correct, but when he thought of the miracles shown by the immortal masters, he felt that his heart was very hot, and he immediately strengthened his determination to cultivate.

He Juncai's attitude is also very resolute, no matter what, they can't say it, they just don't agree, and the two sides are deadlocked.

Walking on the streets of Queensland City, Wu Idiot felt that the scenery here was very beautiful and the folk customs were also very simple.

Both the citizens of the city and the peddlers and pawns are very friendly, and they will nod their heads when they pass by, which makes the martial idiot have a good impression of the city.

Wu idiot enters Panlongfang, here is one of the largest markets in Queensland, because it is close to Cuihufang, so many people here make a living by serving and working in Cuihufang, He Juncai is a household name here, after all, in the eyes of these little people, Leader He is also a small official.

It didn't take much effort for Wu Idiot to find He Juncai's home, in an alley facing the street, and the courtyard was not big from the outside, with only four rooms.

Looking at the appearance of the building, the building period is not long, and the house is still seven or eight percent new, with green walls and tiles, which is considered to be the best in this house.

Wu Idiot walked to the door and was about to knock on the door when he heard a quarrel coming from the courtyard.

He Juncai's voice came: "Tie Niu, calm down, listen to me! Second Uncle will never harm you, right?"

He Tieniu's voice: "Second uncle, of course you won't harm me, but my master won't hurt me either, they are all cultivators, and they are good to me!"

"What if they're liars? When we first meet, you're going to go with them, have you cast some spell on you? Let me see if there's a steel needle in my hair!"

"Second uncle, don't make trouble! Haven't you verified all their tokens? Absolutely authentic immortal master! Besides, you also asked me to lead them the way to find an opportunity, and now that I have found it, and you won't let me go, is it true that you used to say that you supported my cultivation, it was a lie?"

A female voice suddenly interjected: "Okay, you He Juncai, it turned out that you asked Tie Niu to lead the way for those immortal masters, so that Tie Niu was brainwashed, and when you come back, you dare to lie to me, see if I don't clean you up!"

"Oh, wife, you start lightly, I only let Tie Niu lead the way, I didn't let him apprentice, who knew that Tie Niu really had cultivation qualifications, I thought that when he was rejected, he would give up the idea of cultivation. ”

He Zhou roared angrily: "No matter, you can't leave Tie Niu today, you can get out of it yourself, this family can live without your uncle and nephew!"

He Tieniu said resignedly: "Second aunt, don't be angry with your second uncle, Tie Niu really wants to learn to cultivate, if I don't have the qualifications to cultivate, I will definitely die, but the master said that my qualifications are very good, so I don't want to give up such an opportunity, please just promise me, second aunt~~!"

He Juncai said again: "Tie Niu, when it comes to this cultivation qualification test, I think they are liars! They can test the spiritual root for you by taking out a small slap-shaped instrument? I went to the Heavenly Dao Sect to see the instrument they used to test the spiritual root for new disciples, and it was a big instrument that could fit everyone!"

He Tieniu had no choice but to say: "Oh, second uncle, I told you, the uncles of the Xuanji faction are not liars, they are all good people, and their various spells are strong, I have seen them take things out of the air, not one person can do this, but everyone can do this." ”

He Juncai: "Well, even if what you said earlier is true, then what's going on with the silver ticket exchanged by Yunnan Province for one thousand taels?"

He Tieniu said anxiously: "Didn't I tell you yesterday? It was given by the master, and the master asked me to take it back to repay your nurturing kindness, why don't you believe it?"

"Tie Niu, how can there be such a good thing in the world, in Queensland City, which immortal master of the Heavenly Dao Sect does not charge money for his disciples? Moreover, he collects a lot of money!

"Second uncle, cultivators and cultivators are different, don't always look at my teachers with your eyes, I think they are all the best monks, and the monks who are not greedy for money are the real monks!"

He Zhou answered: "Okay, Tie Niu, even if what you say is true, then what's the matter with the injury on your face?"

"This is Young Master Yan and his eldest brother beating, the master stopped them, and gave me medicine for the wound, but I forgot to apply, and the shopkeeper of the Green Lake Inn was beaten together, I don't believe you go and ask him. ”

He Juncai said: "Alas, Tie Niu, it's not that the second uncle won't let you go, I always feel that cultivating immortals is a dangerous thing, I'm afraid that if you have a good one, how can I be worthy of your father." ”

After speaking, He Juncai began to cry.

"Second uncle and aunt, Tie Niu knows that you are good to me, but I don't want to be a burden to you all my life, I want to work hard to cultivate and become a talent as soon as possible, so that I can come back to repay your nurturing grace. ”

He Juncai and He Zhoushi really couldn't persuade He Tieniu, He Zhoushi said: "Good boy, get up, we won't stop you, let you go to see Master, but I hope that before your Master takes you away, you can come to see me, I want to see him with my own eyes, or I won't worry." ”

As soon as He Zhou's words fell, he saw that the latch inserted in the gate suddenly flew out, and someone pushed open the courtyard door and came in, and a thick male voice sounded: "Well, this must be Tie Niu's second aunt, I am Tie Niu's master, and I don't worry about Tie Niu, so I came to see him." You just happen to see me too, so you can ask me any questions. ”

The sudden appearance of the martial idiot startled He Juncai and his wife, and He Zhou's was even more frightened when he saw the tall and strong martial idiot and took two steps back and hid behind his husband.

He Tieniu jumped up and said in surprise, "Master, why are you here?"

Wu Idiot laughed and said, "It's been a night, and you haven't come back to me, so I'm a little worried and came to see you." ”

He Tieniu blushed a little, it is estimated that the master must have heard the conversation between their family of three just now, the second uncle and the second aunt are so suspicious of the master, I don't know if the master will be angry?

Wu Idiot hugged his fist at He Juncai and his wife and said: "Brother He, junior brother Wu Idiot, this Chinese New Year's Eve is thirty years old, should be a little younger than you, call you two brothers and two sisters-in-law, you will not dislike it." ”

He Juncai heard Wu Idiot say this, and hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Immortal Master, you are polite, how dare we have a relationship with your peers? ”

Wu Idiot shook his head and said: "I am now Tie Niu's master, you are his uncle, why are you not an equal, besides, I am indeed not as old as you, you should be this second brother, you can call me Brother Wu or Xiao Wu." ”

He Juncai resolutely did not dare to call Wu Idiot Brother or Xiao Wu, and in the end the two sides compromised, and He Juncai called Wu Idiot as Xiao Wu Immortal Master.

Wu Idiot said: "Second brother and second sister-in-law, I am not here to pick up Tie Niu today, I have to wait until tomorrow when the foundation building conference is over, I will take him away, don't worry." ”

He Zhoushi said with a pale face: "Are you in such a hurry? I don't even have time to make him a new set of clothes and shoes." ”

He Tieniu only felt that his nose was sour, the second uncle and the second aunt were really good to him, and he didn't know how to repay them in the future.

Wu Idiot was very satisfied with He Zhou's reaction and said: "Don't worry about this, the Xuanji Sect is a cultivation sect, you don't have to worry about food, clothing, housing and transportation, we will take care of the Iron Bull." ”

He Zhoushi still said uneasily: "You take back this thousand taels of silver tickets, we don't want your money, we just hope you don't let Tie Niu do too dangerous things, this kid seems to be strong, but his personality is reckless, and he can't do too delicate and dangerous work." ”

The martial idiot said a little helplessly: "Second sister-in-law, it's not what you think, the way of cultivation is to strengthen the body and pursue immortality, and will not force people to do dangerous things." Besides, Queensland City and Xuanji Mountain are not far away, and after two years of Iron Bull's success, I can come back to see you. ”

He Juncai and his wife asked in unison, "Really?"

He Juncai added: "We heard that once you enter the mountains to seek the Tao, you will never see your relatives again in this life, don't lie to me." ”

Wu Idiot looked around, stretched out his hand and beckoned to the door latch on the ground, and the door latch flew into Wu Idiot's hand by itself, leaving He Juncai and his wife dumbfounded.

The martial idiot took the latch and said: "The magic of cultivation is vast, and the qualifications of Tie Niu are very high, it shouldn't be long before something is achieved, and then I can fly back to see you." ”

Wu Zhi controlled the door latch and flew to Tie Niu's side, suspended at a height of one and a half feet from the ground, Wu Zhi said to He Tie Niu: "Tie Niu, stand up." ”

He Tieniu snorted, first stretched out a foot to step on the door latch for fear of falling, only to find that the door latch was very stable after stepping on it, and immediately stepped on the second foot, and the person shook the door latch twice, and then found his balance again.

He Tieniu exclaimed excitedly, "Master, it's amazing, how did you do it?"

The martial idiot said loudly: "Relax your body, don't be afraid. Then with a flick of his wrist, the latch of the door carried He Tieniu and flew up slowly, and soon exceeded the height of the room.

He Juncai and his wife were shocked, and hurriedly said: "Little Martial Immortal Master, we believe that the Xuanji Sect is indeed profound, quickly put down the Iron Bull and don't hurt him." ”

Wu Idiot said to He Tieniu: "Tie Niu, do you want to be more exciting?"

He Tieniu shouted, "Master, you let me feel what it's like to be an immortal. ”

The martial idiot said, "Good!"

I saw that the latch carried He Tieniu and began to accelerate in the air, and He Tieniu was the kind of person who had a strong sense of balance by nature, and he hunched over and followed the latch on the roof of his house, flying and screaming happily.

The martial idiot asked loudly: "Tie Niu, do you want to learn the Tao from me?"

He Tieniu shouted with all his strength: "Master, I want to cultivate!"
